Families of victims of the Nottingham attack involving Valdo Calocane give evidence as an inquiry finishes hearing evidence. In testimony reported by outlets, relatives describe what they say are widespread shortcomings across agencies involved before the killings, including failures they believe affected how concerns about Calocane were handled. Barnaby Webber’s mother, Emma Webber, says she sees parallels between the case and the earlier murder of Henry Nowak, and argues that fear of stigma and bias may have contributed to Calocane remaining free prior to the attack. The evidence session’s conclusion comes after the inquiry hears from people connected to victims, focusing on how agencies responded to information available before the killings. Sources emphasize that the testimony reflects the families’ views about systemic problems, rather than a final finding of responsibility by the inquiry at this stage. The inquiry’s work continues following the close of the evidence hearing, with further steps to follow.
